cell-free biosynthesis of arphamenine a.arphamenine a was synthesized in a cell-free system obtained from the arphamenine-producing strain, chromobacterium violaceum bmg361-cf4. l-[14c]-phenylalanine was converted to beta-phenylpyruvic acid by phenylalanine amino-transferase obtained from the 10,000 x g supernatant (s10 fraction). [14c]-benzylmalic acid was synthesized from beta-phenylpyruvic acid with [14c]-acetyl-coa in the s10 fraction. [14c]-benzylsuccinic acid was formed from beta-phenylpyruvic acid with [14c]-acetyl-coa and atp ...19863707594
first case report from argentina of fatal septicemia caused by chromobacterium violaceum.a case of chromobacterium violaceum fatal septicemia is reported. the microorganism was isolated from six blood cultures and two suppurated skin lesions. it is the first such case described in argentina, and it reinforces the need for prolonged treatment and careful clinical evaluation to ensure complete remission of human infections caused by this bacterium.19863711283
nonfatal chromobacterial sepsis.we have described a case of multiple liver abscesses caused by chromobacterium violaceum. this organism should be considered in any case of unexplained liver abscess occurring in the southeastern united states. successful treatment of liver abscesses caused by this organism may be accomplished with appropriate antibiotic therapy.19863750002
isolation and characterization of aerobic heterotrophic bacteria from natural spring waters in the lanjaron area (spain).aerobic, heterotrophic bacteria were isolated from nine natural mineral water springs in the lanjaron area of spain over the period july 1980 to may 1981. the mineral waters contained few bacteria (mean counts 26-5275 cfu per 100 ml) and the bacterial flora of all nine springs was very similar. most of the isolates were gram-negative rods (90%), and among these pseudomonas spp. and members of the flavobacterium-cytophaga-flexibacter group were numerically dominant. aeromonas-vibrio and enterobac ...19863781942
[fatal septicemia due to chromobacterium violaceum].a 2-year old boy was suffered from an infection caused by chromobacterium violaceum. this is the first case of c. violaceum infection reported in taiwan. the boy was treated with chloramphenicol and gentamicin but died after one month of illness due to the incooperation of patient's family. the causative agent was isolated from patient's blood and scar. complete bacteriologic characteristics and antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of this isolate are reported.19863816371
novel potentiators of beta-lactam antibiotics. isolation of sq28,504 and sq28,546 from chromobacterium violaceum.two novel compounds, sq28,504 and sq28,546 are produced by chromobacterium violaceum. these compounds enhance the antibacterial activity of beta-lactam antibiotics against gram-negative organisms. both sq28,504 and sq28,546 induce morphological changes in the presence of beta-lactam antibiotics. only sq28,546 has weak antimicrobial activity against several gram-negative organisms.19853839229
quantitative studies of heat-stable proteinase from pseudomonas fluorescens p1 by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.pseudomonas fluorescens p1 is a psychrotrophic bacterium isolated from milk. proteinase p1, the main extracellular heat-stable proteinase fraction of p. fluorescens p1, has been purified to homogeneity. a procedure with a sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, using microplates and alkaline phosphatase conjugate was shown to detect 0.25 ng of proteinase p1 in 1 ml of reconstituted skim milk or defatted cream. the method offers the combination of sensitivity and specificity for the detection ...19853920965

mesosome structure in chromobacterium violaceum.exponentially growing cells of the gram-negative bacterium chromobacterium violaceum demonstrate invaginations of the cytoplasmic membrane with a high frequency. these invaginations conform to the ultrastructural appearance of mesosomes of gram-positive bacteria. as many as four mesosomes are observed per cell, each of which may increase the total membrane surface of the cell by 30%. washing of cells in dilute tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane buffer effects a distension of the mesosome "neck" and ...19744828310

nucleic acid similarities among pseudomonas pseudomallei, pseudomonas multivorans, and actinobacillus mallei.annealing experiments on membrane filters were carried out with deoxyribonucleic acids (dna) from selected strains of the nomen-species of pseudomonas, actinobacillus, chromobacterium, and micrococcus, with the use of dna of pseudomonas pseudomallei and actinobacillus mallei as reference materials. under the usual conditions employed in these experiments, the results were not quantitatively reproducible. incorporation of dimethylsulfoxide (dmso) into the incubation medium greatly increased diffe ...19705438051

tryptophan synthetic pathway and its regulation in chromobacterium violaceum.extracts of chromobacterium violaceum catalyzed all of the reactions involved in synthesizing tryptophan from chorismic acid. tryptophan auxotrophs which had lost any of these activities did not produce the characteristic purple pigment, violacein, when grown on a medium in which tryptophan was limiting. gel filtration of extracts allowed us to estimate molecular weights for the tryptophan enzymes. all of the enzymes appeared to have molecular weights below 100,000. no enzymes were observed to o ...19685669904
proteus and coliform meningoencephalitis in neonates.the characteristic necropsy and histological appearances are described of nine cases of proteus meningoencephalitis in neonates. one case which was not due to proteus has been included because of the close similarity of the gross appearances of the brain. umbilical sepsis in half the cases indicated that this is a common portal of entry of these organisms. that epidemiological factors may be of importance in the aetiology was suggested by the distribution of cases.19685697343

beta-cyanoalanine formation by chromobacterium violaceum.nonproliferating cells of chromobacterium violaceum incubated with glycine, methionine, and succinate as substrates accumulated beta-cyanoalanine in the culture fluid. tracer experiments showed that carbons-2, -3, and -4 of beta-cyanoalanine are derived from the 2-carbon of glycine. when methionine-methyl-(14)c, succinate-1,4-(14)c, or succinate-2,3-(14)c was used as substrate, beta-cyanoalanine did not become labeled. if k(14)cn and serine were used as substrates, the cyano group of beta-cyanoa ...19695764335

effect of cold temperatures on the viability of chromobacterium violaceum.the effect of low, nonfreezing temperatures on the viability of five strains of chromobacterium violaceum was studied. the viability of cultures grown at 30 c was determined after exposure to various diluents held at 0 to 2 c. a culture diluted at its growth temperature served as the control. cells of strain n were most sensitive in the early part of the exponential phase of growth. cells of strains 252 and 341 were most sensitive in the late exponential, early stationary phase of growth. cells ...19695774755
effect of enzymes on the composition and structure of chromobacterium violaceum cell envelopes.cell envelopes of chromobacterium violaceum were isolated and treated under controlled conditions with trypsin, pronase, lipase, phospholipase c, lysozyme, and a mixture of enzymes produced by a bacteriolytic pseudomonas sp. after each enzyme treatment, losses in dry weight, protein, lipid, carbohydrate, 2,6-diaminopimelic acid, and total phosphorus were determined. electron-microscopic examination of the enzyme-treated envelopes indicated complete or partial loss of envelope rigidity or some en ...19695776532
